One long winter night I was sleeping in my bed. When I woke up I was startled because I was a raindrop. I was going to yell help when I noticed I didn't have a mouth. I thought about walking somewhere and showing them what was wrong. Then all of a sudden I noticed I didn't have legs. I didn't know what to do and then all of a sudden my roof came off. It was really cold out and the cold put me to sleep. In the morning it was a bright sunny day when I woke up. From the cold in the night I turned into an ice cube. From the really hot sun I started to melt. Then that bright sun started to evaporate me. I had no idea where I was going to fall next... To be continued.
Wow....Great writing James:) Great adjectives! -Miss Tegge
My Awesome Trip If I could go any place in the world, I would go to all the football stadiums in the country. To start off my trip, I would go to the Philadelphia Eagles stadium and take a tour. I'd take a bunch of pictures in front of the stadium and then I would take a long car ride to the Pittsburgh Steelers stadium. I would also take a tour there. I would see if there was any fun stuff there and do those fun things. Next I would go the New York Giants/New York Jets stadium and look in the locker rooms at the player's jerseys. Next I would go to the Buffalo Bills stadium and I would try not to forget my jacket cause it is freezing cold up there. Then I would go to the New England Patriots stadium. Here I would buy a jersey because the team is really good. After that, I would like to go to the Cincinatti Bengals stadium. Here I would watch the game and roar as loud as I can because team's mascot is a tiger. Then I would travel to the Cleveland Browns stadium where I would watch the game and dance. I would dance because their mascot is a little guy dancing. Next I would travel to the Indianapolis Colts stadium. I'd watch the game and then take a tour of the stadium. I would definitely buy a jersey because the team is the best in the league. Then I would travel up to Michigan to go to the Detroit Lions stadium and buy a jersey for my sister because she loves the lions,. I would then travel down to Illinois to watch the Chicago Bears play a game. I would love to see speedy Devin Hester run back a punt return for a touchdown. When I leave the stadium, I would hop in the car and drive to Wisconsin to see the Green Bay Packers stadium. I'd love to see Aaron Rodgers pass to Donald Driver for a 93 yard touchdown to win the game. After I am done visiting that stadium, I go to Minnesota, home of the Minnesota Vikings. I'd like to see Brett Favre throw a pass and it tips off Adrian Peterson's hands and then Percy Harvin's hands and fall into the hands of Sidney Rice for a 100 ard touchdown to win the game. Next I would take a really long drive to Washington State to see the Seattle Seahawks play and take the tour of the stadium. But if I saw them play, I'd be sure to bring a poncho because it rains all the time. Then I'd drive to California that is tied for first in most football teams in a state. First I'd go to the San Francisco 49ers stadium and if I went there, I would love to meet Michael Crabtree. Second, I'd go to the Oakland Raiders stadium and meet Louis Murphy. Finally I'd go to the warm sunny stadium of the San Diego Chargers. I would get a Phillip Rivers jersey. Next I'd take a plane to Hawaii to see the ProBowl stadium. I would want to see all the great players like Derrell Revus, DeSean Jackson and Ray Lewis. Then I'd take a plane to Arizona to see the Arizona Cardinals stadium, where I would want to meet Larry Fitzgerald. Then I'd be off to Colorado to see the Denver Broncos stadium. I'd love to meet Brian Dawkins and feel the nice cool breeze. Then I be ready to go to Kansas for the Kansas City Chiefs stadium. I think it would be cool to meet Jamal Charles. Next I'd be off to the Dallas Cowboys stadium to meet Miles Austin and then I'd go to the Houston Texans stadium to meet the amazing sticky handed Andre Johnson. From there on, I would go to the New Orleans Saints stadium. I would meet the NFL MVP Drew Brees. At the Saints stadium, I would remember all those people who had to live in that stadium because of Hurricane Katrina. Next I would go to Florida, which is tied with California for the most football teams. Here, I would first go to the Tampa Bay Bucaneers stadium and I'd dress up in a pirate costume to cheer for the Bucaneers. From there on, I would drive the Miami Dolphins stadium. I would like to meet the awesome Ricky Williams. After that I would drive up to the Jacksonville Jaguars stadium. I would vampire teeth in my mouth since the Jaguars have sharp teeth. After leaving the Jaguars stadium, I'd like to see the Gulf of Mexico. There I would take pictures and swim. Next I'd drive up the coast to the Atlanta Falcons stadium. I would like to meet Michael Turner. After that I'd be set to go to the Tennessee Titans stadium. I'd love to meet Chris Johnson and ask him how he runs so fast. Then I would arrive in Charlotte, NC and see the Carolina Panthers stadium. I would want to meet Steve Smith. While in North Carolina, I'd like to see the Outer Banks. Finally my trip is almost done but I am upset. I wish had more time to spend at these stadiums. I would drive into the Baltimore Ravens stadium parking lot and go in to tour the stadium. There I think it would be cool to meet Joe Flaco and I wish he could give me some tips on how to throw the ball. Last but certainly not least, I'd arrive in Washington, DC to see the Washington Redskins stadium. I would want to meet former Eagle, now Redskin Quarterback Donovan McNabb. I would also like him to show me some tips on how to throw a football really far. I don't want to leave this stadium so I try to get tickets for the game and I get the last five tickets for my family that I brought along with me on this vacation. After the game was over at 11:30pm, the Redskins won 28-26 in OT against the undefeated Atlanta Falcons. I can't beleive I got to see the Redskins last game of the season. It knocked the Atlanta Falcons down to 15 and 1 and it boosted the Redskins up to 11 and 5. They made the playoffs. At 12:00 I didn't want to leave, then I remembered that I didn't eat dinner yet. I then had Chicken and Fries with Donovan McNabb. That night I stayed in a hotel with the Redskins players. I woke up the next morning and said bye to the Redskins players, especially Donovan McNabb because he was on the Philadelphia Eagles, my favorite team. I left to go to the White House where my family and I had lunch with Barack Obama. We say goodbye and went home. As we went home, I couldn't beleive that I just went to 32 football stadiums, the Gulf of Mexico, the Outer Banks and the White House and it was all in the time period of 63 days. When I got home, it was 1:00am, I was exhausted but I knew it was going to be the most comfy bed I had on this whole vacation. I fell asleep at 1:27am. If I got to go on any trip, that would be the trip I would want to go on.
Randall Cunningham
The most valuble thing I have is a Randall Cunningham football card. This card is also my favorite thing that I have because this football player was fantastic. It is probably my favorite thing because when my Great Pop passed away on Tuesday, September 28, 2010, 2:30 PM, that was the only thing I had that belonged to him. When my parents told me that he died, I was upset and I ran up stairs and got my card. I went to my Dad and said "remeber this." Then my dad said back "yes I do remeber that card Great Pop gave that card to you." That is why it is my favorite thing I have.
Farms In Quakertown
Farms in Quakertown are very important for many reasons. First, farmers take very good care of animals and animals give us meat, energy and protien, that we need. Also, farmers take care of crops such as fruits and vegetables, these give us vitamin D and vitamin C. Cows, sheep and goat give us milk to make our bones stronger. That is why farms are important.
Television-What is real and what is not?
Biggest Loser is a show full of obese people that are trying to lose weight. Their weights are usually 220-530 pounds. You can tell that this show is real because first, it looks real, second you can tell that it's real because why would they make a fake show about people trying to lose weight. I have watched four whole seasons and seen people lose up to 300 pounds by working really hard in the gym for many hours and eating healthy. Even though these people have completely ruined their lives, this show changes that and gives them a new life.
Not Just an Ordinary Shirt
My favorite sweatshirt is blue and red I like it so much I wear it to bed It has a hood Which does some good But when it's hot Wearing it, I do not It keeps you warm like a bear But it doesn't have any hair I like to wear it to the Towne I wear it with the hood down I bring it to the Poconos But too bad it doesn't fit my toes I plan to wear it till it doesn't fit In this sweatshirt, I never quit.
Autumn
It's a cold autumn night The leaves out front are very bright The lights are shining The miners outside are mining There's a bear With no hair The thing thats freezing is my toes My sisters & mom are wearing beautiful bowes My dad is wearing a tie That's the end good by.
Winter
Out front there is snow It is hot no,no,no In this frigid blizzard I walk like a slow lizard I have mittens they're soft and warm like kittens I see lots of icicles But not many bicycles I see big, snowy mountains and freezing water fountains The evergreens are shimmering in the night Oh what a beautiful sight
Snow Days
In Quakertown we have lots of snow, sometimes we get a lot of it
and other times we don't. I like the times when we do have snow. When you see the first snow fall of the year, it is joy to your eyes. The cold white snow falls down, you sit near the window and press your face against the frigid window. You wait till your parents are up and you whisper do we have off and if they say yes your body fills up with joy. But if your parents say no you get bummed out because you have to sit in your desk and all you can think about is when you get home and can jump in the snow. The most exciting thing about a snow day is not only do I get off my dad does too because he is a librarian at Tohickon Valley. On snow days I like to call my next door neighbors Wesley, William, Kiera, and Kelsey (The Shaws.) When we are outside in the snow we like to have snowball fights, build snowmen, snow women, snow boys, and snow girls, build forts under our swing sets out of snow (right), and play football. When all of us our done I invite the Shaws into my house to have some hot chocolate. The hot chocolate is warm, creamy, brown, and delightful. I wish it would snow everyday so the fun would never end.

The Talking Frogs 9506
I woke up one morning and I felt something wet on my head it was my frogs, they jumped out. I didn't know where they went. So I told my mom about it and went to school. The frogs hopped on my desk and Miss Tegge said "what is 97 * 98?". The frog answered back "9,506". Everybody was in shock that the frog could talk. I went home and put them back in the... to be continued
Making the World a Better Place
What I would do to make the world a better place? I would stop hunger issues. I think it isn't fair how innocent people have to struggle everyday to find food. We do have programs that help people get some food. We are making progress but there are still 49% of people who are dying from hunger. To make the world better, I would have everybody give money to a program that buys alot of food for hungry people. All of the tax money would go to hungry people. That is what I would do to make the world a better place.
I Can Fly!
I woke one morning and there was something in front of my face. It was a wizard I couldn't tell what he was doing. He said, "I'm gonna put a spell on you, you can fly for 48 hours." As soon as I knew I could fly I jumped right out my window but I fell. Then the wizard said "oh yeah I forgot to tell you, you can fly in 10 hours." I couldn't fall back asleep that night because I couldn't wait until I could fly. I counted down the numbers "10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1" then I screamed "0." I ran out my window and I was flying! First, I went to an Eagles game and the Eagles were losing 26 - 31 and there was 00:01 left in the game. It was Superbowl 46. I ran onto the field and said "Mike Patterson give me your jersey, I can fly I'll get the ball before the quarterback does and get a touchdown." Then Mike Patterson said "Prove that you can fly." So I flew up in the sky. Then Mike Patterson said "Okay but kid if we lose it's on you." So Mike Patterson gave me his jersey and I slipped it on. Tom Brady yelled "Blue 42 purple 19 orange 65 set down hike!" It' a pitch to Danny Woodhead I catch the ball and I flew down the field as fast as I could. The referee signals no touchdown. I start screaming at him "Are you nuts you have got to be kidding me do you have any eyes!" The referee says "Number 98 on the Eagles is out of the game." Andy Reid throws out the red challenge flag. The nice referee who didn't make that horrible call looks over the play again. After, he was done reviewing he says it's a touchdown. I start yelling at the referee " Number 102 on the referee squad is out of the refereeing job for making that horrible call." Then I celebrate with Eagles squad. Then I fly to the World Cup where U.S.A. is losing 4 - 1. So I asked Landon Donavan "Can I have your jersey." He said "Sure" Then Rafael Marquez of Mexico yells "Eso no es justo que tienen a un nino volador en su equipo" In english that is that is not fair they have a flying on child their team. The referee said "Stop telling fibs and start focusing on the game." Rafael Marquez kicked the ball up in the air and I caught it between my chest and my knee so they didn't call any penalties. I flew down to the goal and I kicked it and went in. The referee blew his whistle and said "Goal by number 10 now the score is Mexico 4 - U.S.A. 2 and there is 16:38 left in the game. Then I flew down the field and scored a goal. The score was now Mexico 4 - U.S.A. 3. The crowd roared "Who da man!? who da man!? the child is! the child is! who scored 2 goals in a row!? the child did! the child did!" At the end the score was Mexico 4 - U.S.A 4 so we went into overtime. The rules were the first team to score a goal wins. So Rafael Marquez kicked the ball so hard it hit the crossbar and flew across the field and it went into the oppisite goal. The final score was U.S.A. 5 - Mexico 4. At the celebration I shared the excitement and the laugher with the players. Then, I flew to the Bicycle Riding Tournament where Lance Armstrong hurt his leg and couldn't ride so I picked up Lance's bike and flew him to the finish line and he won so he was very happy. He gave me a handshake. Then, I flew to the Mixed Martial Arts Tournament the MMAT. There I helped Patrick Barry. I picked him up and he kicked his opponent so hard that it knocked him down. Patrick Barry gave me a fist bump. Then, he said " See ya thanks again for helping me win." I said back "Any time." Along the way I helped out Venus Williams a tennis player, Michael Phelps a swimmer, Tony Hawk a skateboarder, Shaun White a snowboarder, and Jacee Badeaux a singer. After that I went to a Stanley Cup where the Flyers were losing in the shootout against the Chicago Blackhawks. The Blackhawks Got 2 out of the 3 goals in the shootout. During the season the Flyers Went to 10 shootouts. They got 0 out of the 30 goals that they tried to make. So I went on the rink and the wizard popped up. He said "You now have 24 hours left to fly." I was on the rink then I cracked the ice a little on purpose. I bet your wondering why did I crack the ice. Well here is your answer it would give me time to do something that would make the Flyers win. I called 321-687-5436 I asked for 2 Croll Chips. Croll chips are something that you put chip A1 on your shoe and put chip B2 on another person's shoe. The person that has chip A1 can controll the person that has chip B2. So I sneaked onto the rink and put B2 on Jonathan Toews skate. Then, I put chip A1 on my shoe. Next, I hid in a resturant that was watching the game so I flew up in the air every time the Flyers took a shot and it moved Jonathan Toews who they put in for goalie. The Flyers won the Stanley Cup. I flew back to the stadium where Mike Richards gave me a handshake. Then I flew to the Basketball Finals where the 76ers were losing to the Heat. The score was Heat 201 76ers 199 there was 97 hundreths of a minute left in the game. I put on Andre Iguadaula's jersey because Andre was hurt. So as soon as the referee tossed me the ball I flew up in the air and took a shot right before the buzzer went off. Believe it or not the ball went in setting the world record for the longest shot ever. Andre Iguadaula thanked me for playing. Finally, I flew to the World Series. Where the Phillies were playing the series was tied 3 to 3. The last game of the World Series didn't look so good for the Phillies. The score was 7 -2 the Yankees were creaming the Phillies. The Phillies were doing really
The Da Vinci Science Center
My 4th grade field trip was to the DaVinci Science Center. This by far was the absolute best field trip I ever took. When we arrived, we went to the exhibit that taught you about car safety. This was interesting because it taught you what can happen if a driver gets distracted, it also taught you how to prevent being distracted. One of the things that were around the exhibit was a car. The car had a big screen in front of it. It showed you what can distract you and what you should stay focused on while driving.
The most educational part of the trip was the workshop. Here, we did a maximum voltage test using a voltage meter. We learned that the voltages don't get that high. The highest in our class was 1.01. Our class thought that it would go higher if we put 2 pieces of metal together. But later, we learned that to get a higher reading, you need liquid.
For next year's 4th grade class, I would make everything have a longer time and nothing have a shorter time. I would do this because the DaVinci Science Center was phenomenal. It was one of the best experiences I ever had. The DaVinci Science Center was awesome and I would take it over any other field trip.

Not Just an Ordinary Shirt
My favorite sweatshirt is blue and red
I like it so much I wear it to bed
It has a hood
Which does some good
But when it's hot
Wearing it, I do not
It keeps you warm like a bear
But it doesn't have any hair
I like to wear it to the Towne
I wear it with the hood down
I bring it to the Poconos
But too bad it doesn't fit my toes
I plan to wear it till it doesn't fit
In this sweatshirt, I never quit.
Autumn
It's a cold autumn night
The leaves out front are very bright
The lights are shining

There's a bear

My dad is wearing a tie
That's the end good by.

It is hot no,no,no

I walk like a slow lizard

and freezing water fountains
The evergreens are shimmering in the night
Oh what a beautiful sight

When all of us our done I invite the Shaws into my house to have some hot chocolate. The hot chocolate is warm, creamy, brown, and delightful. I wish it would snow everyday so the fun would never end.

The referee said "Stop telling fibs and start focusing on the game." Rafael Marquez kicked the ball up in the air and I caught it between my chest and my knee so they didn't call any penalties. I flew down to the goal and I kicked it and went in. The referee blew his whistle and said "Goal by number 10 now the score is Mexico 4 - U.S.A. 2 and there is 16:38 left in the game. Then I flew down the field and scored a goal. The score was now Mexico 4 - U.S.A. 3. The crowd roared "Who da man!? who da man!? the child is! the child is! who scored 2 goals in a row!? the child did! the child did!" At the end the score was Mexico 4 - U.S.A 4 so we went into overtime. The rules were the first team to score a goal wins. So Rafael Marquez kicked the ball so hard it hit the crossbar and flew across the field and it went into the oppisite goal. The final score was U.S.A. 5 - Mexico 4. At the celebration I shared the excitement and the laugher with the players. Then, I flew to the Bicycle Riding Tournament where Lance Armstrong hurt his leg and couldn't ride so I picked up Lance's bike and flew him to the finish line and he won so he was very happy. He gave me a handshake. Then, I flew to the Mixed Martial Arts Tournament the MMAT. There I helped Patrick Barry. I picked him up and he kicked his opponent so hard that it knocked him down. Patrick Barry gave me a fist bump. Then, he said " See ya thanks again for helping me win." I said back "Any time." Along the way I helped out Venus Williams a tennis player, Michael Phelps a swimmer, Tony Hawk a skateboarder, Shaun White a snowboarder, and Jacee Badeaux a singer. After that I went to a Stanley Cup where the Flyers were losing in the shootout against the Chicago Blackhawks. The Blackhawks Got 2 out of the 3 goals in the shootout. During the season the Flyers Went to 10 shootouts. They got 0 out of the 30 goals that they tried to make. So I went on the rink and the wizard popped up. He said "You now have 24 hours left to fly." I was on the rink then I cracked the ice a little on purpose. I bet your wondering why did I crack the ice. Well here is your answer it would give me time to do something that would make the Flyers win. I called 321-687-5436 I asked for 2 Croll Chips. Croll chips are something that you put chip A1 on your shoe and put chip B2 on another person's shoe. The person that has chip A1 can controll the person that has chip B2. So I sneaked onto the rink and put B2 on Jonathan Toews skate. Then, I put chip A1 on my shoe. Next, I hid in a resturant that was watching the game so I flew up in the air every time the Flyers took a shot and it moved Jonathan Toews who they put in for goalie. The Flyers won the Stanley Cup. I flew back to the stadium where Mike Richards gave me a handshake. Then I flew to the Basketball Finals where the 76ers were losing to the Heat. The score was Heat 201 76ers 199 there was 97 hundreths of a minute left in the game. I put on Andre Iguadaula's jersey because Andre was hurt. So as soon as the referee tossed me the ball I flew up in the air and took a shot right before the buzzer went off. Believe it or not the ball went in setting the world record for the longest shot ever. Andre Iguadaula thanked me for playing. Finally, I flew to the World Series. Where the Phillies were playing the series was tied 3 to 3. The last game of the World Series didn't look so good for the Phillies. The score was 7 -2 the Yankees were creaming the Phillies. The Phillies were doing really
The Da Vinci Science Center
My 4th grade field trip was to the DaVinci Science Center. This by far was the absolute best field trip I ever took. When we arrived, we went to the exhibit that taught you about car safety. This was interesting because it taught you what can happen if a driver gets distracted, it also taught you how to prevent being distracted. One of the things that were around the exhibit was a car. The car had a big screen in front of it. It showed you what can distract you and what you should stay focused on while driving.
The most educational part of the trip was the workshop. Here, we did a maximum voltage test using a voltage meter. We learned that the voltages don't get that high. The highest in our class was 1.01. Our class thought that it would go higher if we put 2 pieces of metal together. But later, we learned that to get a higher reading, you need liquid.
For next year's 4th grade class, I would make everything have a longer time and nothing have a shorter time. I would do this because the DaVinci Science Center was phenomenal. It was one of the best experiences I ever had. The DaVinci Science Center was awesome and I would take it over any other field trip.
